Apple Releases iOS 18 Developer Preview Beta 2 with New Features

TapTechNews June 25th news, Apple today released the iOS 18 Developer Preview Beta 2, and this update mainly brings functions such as iPhone mirroring, support for RCS, and a dark mode for the home screen.

TapTechNews noticed that the iPhone music haptic feedback function is now available in this version, and after users enable this function, the iPhone will vibrate along with the music.

According to Apple's official introduction, when the iPhone accesses a Wi-Fi network or cellular network, the music haptic feedback will play simultaneously with the content of AppleMusic, AppleMusic Classic, Shazam, and supported third-party apps. Both the iPhone speaker, wired headphones, and Apple/Beats wireless headphones support experiencing music haptics when playing audio.

The steps to enable the iPhone music haptic feedback function are as follows:

Open the music haptic feedback in the Accessibility settings.

When music starts playing, the music haptic feedback will automatically synchronize with the music.

After enabling, you can quickly start or stop the music haptic feedback in the Control Center.

During song playback, you can also temporarily mute or unmute the music haptic feedback in the iOS playback control.

TapTechNews tested four music software (AppleMusic, Spotify, QQ Music, NetEase Cloud Music), and currently only AppleMusic supports this function. Although QQ Music and NetEase Cloud Music do not support this function, the sound effect functions in the applications have pre-set music vibration functions (QQ Music: 4D vibration, NetEase Cloud Music: beat vibration).
